The most irritating thing about companies that do layoffs is not the positive, read-between-the-lines communication before the layoff. I got used to it and know how to read the sugar coating.

It’s telling you that you can apply again in another location after the layoff.

A miracle happened! As a German living In China, I received my ballot papers to vote for the Federal Parliament.

Sadly, a few weeks too late. 🤷‍♀️

Shanghai bans fireworks. As I experienced my second lunar new year, I cannot say how much I love it. No noise, no dirt, no smoke, no anxious animals, no accidents. Just quietness, fresh air, birds singing.

Happy year of the snake! 🧧🐍
